Cleaning
The procedure varies with the part that requires cleaning. The
procedures are detailed below.
• Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals.
II Camera body
Use a blower to remove dust and lint, then wipe gently with a
soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or seaside,
wipe off sand or salt with a cloth lightly dampened in distilled
water and dry the camera thoroughly.
Important: Dust or other foreign matter inside the camera may
cause product malfunction. Damage due to the presence of foreign
matter inside the camera is not covered under warranty.
II Lens, mirror, and viewfinder
These glass elements are easily damaged: remove dust and lint
with a blower. If using an aerosol blower, keep the can vertical
to prevent the discharge of liquid that could damage glass
elements. To remove fingerprints and other stains, apply a small
amount of lens cleaner to a soft cloth and clean with care.
II Monitor
Remove dust and lint with a blower. When removing
fingerprints and other stains, wipe the surface lightly with a soft
cloth or chamois leather. Do not apply pressure, as this could
result in damage or malfunction.
